Follow your afternoon out with a night of stargazing and relaxation with a glass of wine on the back deck overlooking the unbroken 20 mile view of the Texas Hill Country. Fire up the gas grill for some outdoor cooking or enjoy making s'mores in the rock fire pit. Both children and adult guest love the many swings located throughout Hideaway's fully fenced backyard. Our hot tub has been replaced with a clean sandbox for our younger guests enjoyment!

Peaceful place a short drivw from Austin

We stayed here when in town for a wedding. What a peaceful place this was. We watched deer, coyotes and roadrunners wander just on the other side of the fence. The deck was amazing. Property was well maintained and equipped with everything we needed. Stires were nearby and plenty of places to explore. I would absolutely stay here again if travels take me back to this area.

Grandson Approved!

My family, including our daughter's family, had an absolutely wonderful stay at this home. The house was impeccably clean and incredibly comfortable, making it the perfect home base for our vacation. The views from the property were nothing short of spectacular, adding a special touch to our mornings and evenings.Our grandson was in heaven with all the activities available right at the house. From swings to a sand pit, watching the animals, and plenty of open space to run and play, there was never a dull moment. It was such a joy watching him have so much fun.Chris, the host, was exceptional—super responsive, friendly, and went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. We’re already planning our next trip back because we loved it so much! Highly recommend this gem to anyone looking for a family-friendly getaway.

Dripping Springs Hideaway on a Hill

We loved everything from start to finish! Upon arriving we immediately noticed how clean the property was and how perfectly setup and arranged the rooms and layout were. The views off the back patio are simply stunning! The deer were another highlight, delighting these city folk every morning and evening. Absolutely the spring break we needed. Thank you, Chris, for your hospitality and kindness! You’ve got a gem! Blessings to you.

Lovely home with a beautiful view

My wife and I traveled with our 2 young boys (5,3) and my in laws came too. They took the upstairs master suite and we stayed downstairs near our boys. The space worked out well and the house is very well stocked with supplies and necessary items for cooking and cleaning. The kids loved the playground equipment outside and the sandbox and swings. We’d definitely stay here again if we had a future trip to the area.

Hill Country Jewel

Everyone in our group felt at home immediately and thought that the house and the property exceeded what the VRBO posting shared. The property manager was attentive from the time we arrived to our departure. This place has it all, including a stunning view from an excellent location! We can't wait to return.

This property is understated on how beautiful the views are and the pictures don’t do it justice. This is a must rent property for a family of 7 or less. All I can say is PERFECT.

Get away to Dripping Springs

We had a wedding at Canyonwood Ridge and love that fact that we were so close to the venue. The place was clean and had everything we needed. We loved the view from the backyard and the space to sit out there a few times to talk and enjoy the view. It was awesome to see the amount of deers and birds.We also made time to visit Barton Springs and Wimberley on our 4 day stay. I would definitely recommend this home to anyone visiting Dripping Springs or surrounding area. Thank you.

Perfect Stay

We had a lovely stay at Tawnya's Hideaway. It was exactly as described and was the perfect Dripping Springs location. We were in town to attend a graduation and had 4 adults stay with plenty of room. The swing in the back yard overlooking Texas Hill country was the perfect spot for morning coffee. We enjoyed our stay and will recommend to friends and family.

Great Property and Location

My husband and I stayed from Wednesday-Sunday. We loved the location and the property as well. It was very peaceful. Not too far from other little towns you might want to visit like Fredericksburg and Wimberley. We got to see some deer on the property. We will definitely be back. Communication with the owner was excellent.

Nieces Graduation

My daughters and I flew in for my niece's graduation. The house was close to everything but also very quiet and secluded. We enjoyed the house very much it was everything as advertised. The deck/patio was amazing! We would spend our mornings out there having coffee and our evenings relaxing after long days of sight seeing and family events! Highly recommend and would stay again!

Understated Gem

Wow, breathtaking views, deer in the front yard, totally secure, back porch heaven, and soooo much more. This is more than I’ve ever encountered in a VRBO. Tawnya’s Hideaway is an exemplary example of a vacation rental. The bar has been set. Good luck to all the other area rentals. These host’s have written the playbook!

Why they chose this property

Always desired a property with a view with ample space between neighbors and away from the big city!

What makes this property unique

I fell in love with the view that this property offered. Built the home in 1994 and it has been very well maintained since. I've been short term renting since 2014 now using a different management company at the beginning. My previous guests have all loved their stay and I have been quite flattered by their comments and reviews.
